Fully procedural basic hexagon textures.

There is a special YT video - https://youtu.be/YXc-VlMCRqE

Supports new Blender 3.0 Asset Browser.
Blend file has the "K.M. - " prefix and each material has the "Mrbl. - " prefix.

File includes 16 basic hexagon patterns based on 1 unique node group.

Updated Hex_2.0
⁃ Improved Hexalate output
⁃ New Quads and Tris outputs

Why procedural shader textures instead of regular PBR maps?

Infinite resolution. Textures that you normally use are always limited by their resolution and in close they are just mess of pixels. Procedural textures, on other hand, have infinite resolution and a huge number of elements that can be changed to suit your needs!
With W data you can make a different texture with the same settings to a group of objects. For example imagine that you need to make a wooden fence. If you use a regular texture, then all your boards will be the same, you can of course change the scale and change the coordinates a little, but you still be limited to one image. Using procedural textures, you can customize the materials as you like using object data and W input. Apply it to all objects so they will be absolutely unique, but consisting of the same material.
Mix with other procedural materials and textures using mask outputs. Combine colour, height and other maps with mixRGB node and mask outputs.
And if you worry about render time then remember that you always can bake your customized textures. This is a very simple process. If you do not know how to bake then watch this video by Olav3D.
